No Wine Day
Feb. 27
Tomorrow the 28th is Saturday, so today is the last closing day of February.
Still, why is there only 28 days in February? It’s a matter of every year, but I’m completely out of shape.
Back in Roman times, I have heard people say that it is Caesar’s fault or Augustus’ fault, but this absurdity has continued since that time.
Is there anyone who wants to do something about it?
Today’s dish
Raw Oysters
Bonito and Firefly-squid Sashimi
Tofu Salad
Unagi Steamed Rice
I was going to cook Hot Tofu, but the temperature was high and I changed it to a salad.
I had it with sesame dressing. It was quite delicious.
Today’s Wine
Turckheim Riesling 2022 2,300 yen
I wanted to drink a little fine wine, so I opened this Riesling from Alsace.
I felt pure and rich fruits flavor, elegant acidity unique to Riesling, and a crisp minerality.
For me, there are not many opportunities to drink Riesling, but when I drink it, I always understand why Riesling has long been said to be a noble variety.
After all, it’s very delicious.
